Gaviota 5 vs. 4

Nice stable shoe, but I am a little disappointed in the arch support. The Gaviota 4, which I ran in for six months was a fabulous shoe so I thought the 5 would be an improvement. I don’t feel it is as solidly made, and it has a wider and more clumsy silhouette than the Gaviota 4. still, the Gaviota 5 I is a decent running shoe, just not as stellar as it’s previous iteration

Poor durability

These shoes, HOKA Gaviota, were awesome for the first 4 months and until the cushion stability gave out. I only wore them 3-4 times per week. Since I purchased them at Nordstrom Rack, I couldn't return them. So I pursued the 1 yr warranty. I called Hoka and they said there was nothing they could do for me, "It is standard usage that happens overtime". Which means if you buy these shoes, plan for them to last less than 6 months with very light usage. Hoka will not stand behind their product! I do not recommend Hoka shoes based on the lack of durability and customer support. Very disappointed!!!

So Disapppinting

I loved the old Graviotas. Bought another pair when they came out with the 5's. They widened the whole box and they look like paddles now. Why spoil a great shoe, especially when they make it in a wide!! Have yet to find a good replacement. Bring back the old Graviota 4's!!
